On the sidelines of the Copa America final won by Argentina against Colombia (1-0), incidents took place during the entry of the supporters into the stadium, who delayed the kick-off of the match. On social networks, images of fans trying to infiltrate the Hard Rock Stadium in Miami through the ventilation system caused a stir.

While history will remember the Albiceleste’s new victory in the Copa America final against Colombia (1-0), bringing their record of victories in the competition to 16, the images of the incidents at the entrance to the Hard Rock Stadium in Miami before the match will also remain very vivid. Especially since the Florida stadium is due to host seven matches of the next World Cup in 2026, co-organized by the United States, Canada and Mexico.

An Afternoon of Chaos in Miami

Because in fact, before the match, the afternoon had started in chaos , the organizers complaining about the attitude of some supporters, who, themselves, suffered in the heat crowd movements and long wait, between arrests and fainting. The police used force and arrested several individuals who tried to enter the stadium apparently without tickets. After several incidents, the doors remained closed for several hours, the rescuers intervening for several fainting due to the heat (around 34 degrees) and the compactness of the crowd.

When the organizers finally reopened the gates, the fans’ entry was once again chaotic. “They treat us like animals, the organization is non-existent. In any case, nothing was ready to welcome 60,000 people,” regretted Cécilia Cabarelli, an Argentinian fan.

Fans enter the stadium through the ventilation system

On social media, completely crazy images began to circulate, including a video showing apparently Colombian supporters trying to enter the stadium via… the ventilation system in order to watch the match and escape police checks.

On Wednesday, violence had already broken out in the stands during the Colombia-Uruguay semi-final in Charlotte (North Carolina), leading to initial criticism of the South American Football Confederation
